Isnt it about keeping dangerouw weapons out of the hands of minors? I would have thought so.


Criminals will find ways to get weapons, whether they kill someone, steal it from a car, or even a LEO, it is impossible to stop this in its' entirety.

(btw, I'm seeing more news reports of firearms being stolen from LEOs' than I hear of gunsops and gunshows being loopholes for criminals, an example is shown below)

Congress can pass legislation saying that no minor will ever touch a gun for fear of them injuring themselves doesn't mean that a minor somehow, somewhere won't end up injuring or killing themselves. Preventing the deaths of minors is best done through education, not legislation.
